Today we would like to unfortunately announce that player Sebastian “Bass” Bou-Samra has stepped down from the Dark Sided CS:GO roster. Following the success of ZEN League Offline Qualifiers it was made known by Bass that due to a mismatch of personalities he would like to pursue further opportunities in his career elsewhere. This decision despite being a difficult choice to make, Dark Sided are confident that it is best for both parties and wish nothing but the best for Bass and his future endeavours.

Standing in place for Dark Sided CS:GO will be Richard Stacy whom after being a long term substitute for the roster has seen an upgrade to the core line-up. With his recent performance with the team in ESEA-P Season 24 Dark Sided are happy to welcome this addition with open arms.

During this time Dark Sided caught up with Richard Stacy to see his thought about this move into our CS:GO roster and his future with the organisation.

“I am very excited and grateful to be joining such a well-established organization and CSGO team. Only starting CSGO competitive 5 months ago I believe these opportunities don’t come around to often and will do the best in my ability to deliver for the team and Dark sided.

The future with DS is looking very promising, the current lineup has a lot of potential and can only get better with more experience. I believe with consistency and chemistry an E-sport team can go a long way and that is what I strive to do alongside Dark Sided.”
